Haven’t MPs already voted on this?

Sounds to me like they’re scheming ways to avoid the people’s authority. The vote was taken. Enough! Follow the will of the people.

You have a number of lines which have intersected and made the 20th of June a major impact date.

Toss in the Tommy Robinson business and a fair number of Brits who believe that May leads a corrupt government.

Toss in the BREXIT crowd who believe May is incompetent and unable to conclude a treaty.

Toss in the Brits who believe the EU is out to screw them over.

Then toss in the general members of the public who think both the Tories and the Labour Party are so screwed up....that nothing can be resolved over BREXIT.

This is why the deep state took arms away from the British. They want to rule without the consent of the governed. Even after taking away guns, they are still afraid. What will they take next? Some example rebels. Say one with a big mouth? Throw him in prison with the chaos distractors who would kill him. America watch carefully.

For many years Nigel Farage had to put up with death threats and very real intimidation and physical violence against himself and his family. And the police looked the other way.
But of course when the left do it, it’s okay.
And when they sabotage the democratic choice of the people, well that should be okay too it seems!

Former UK financial district leader sees 75,000 Brexit job losses

A former leader of London’s financial district believes Britain is unlikely to get generous access to the European Union financial market after Brexit, resulting in a loss of 75,000 jobs and 10 billion pounds ($13.2 billion) in tax revenue.

Mark Boleat, political leader of the City of London until last year, said that for mainstream banking and insurance, the most likely outcome of divorce talks is that Britain will be treated like other non-EU states, with no special access after any transitional arrangements have ended.

“So the worst-case scenario - which currently looks the most likely - is the loss of 75,000 jobs and 10 billion pounds of tax revenue,”
